Pictures

'A picture is worth a 1000 words' so they say. Pictures can be used for many different purposes in an educational sense, they can help students to visualize a concept, put their theory into practice or motivate and engage them in learning. its would be difficult to convey mathematical concepts and process in a still image however images could be used as an introductory sense to give an overview or engage students. Here is an image that sums up the concept of mathematics itself.

  1. I agree with you Pete, I feel images really enhance student learning and help them to make connections between theory and the real world.
